Ancient Greece is often divided into distinct periods, and Pre-Hellenism is one of them, marking the period before the death of Alexander the Great and the subsequent cultural expansion known as Hellenism. During Pre-Hellenism, Greece underwent a process of political, social, and cultural evolution that laid the foundations for later achievements and deeply influenced the societies that followed. Analyze the following excerpt from Robin Osborne and discuss how the social and cultural transformations that occurred in Greece during this period contributed to the formation of Hellenistic societies: 'The political and social evolution of Greece was marked by the transition from an archaic structure to a more complex one, reflecting changes in power relations and the emergence of new forms of cultural identity.' (Osborne, R. Greece in the Making, 1200-479 BC. Routledge, 1996) In your response, consider the characteristics of city-states, the role of religion, and the importance of intellectual and artistic advancements in this process of transformation.
